The Broncos are placing running back Jonah Coleman on injured reserve with a high-ankle sprain.

Unfortunate for the rookie, who generated plenty of buzz in the preseason as a strong sleeper pick. Now, he is out for at least the next four games. The earliest he would be back would be in Week 7 against the Cardinals. The Broncos' bye is in Week 10. J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey are both off the injury report and good to go against the Rams on Sunday night.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (stinger) and WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) both have no game status and are good to go for Monday night against the Bears.

Both practiced in full Saturday. Barkley also practiced in full on Friday. Barkley left Sunday's game against the Titans but did return to the sideline. He was back at practice Thursday and will be a full go Monday. Smith did not practice Thursday after his injury popped up, but a full practice Saturday has him ready to roll Monday in what should be a favorable matchup for him. In our Week 3 half-PPR rankings, Barkley is RB12 and Smith is WR9.

The Bears are listing QB Tyson Bagent as questionable for Monday’s game against the Eagles with a concussion.

Bagent got in a full practice Saturday after missing practice Friday. With the Bears ruling out Caleb Williams, Case Keenum would be the starter if Bagent cannot play Monday.

Bears head coach Ben Johnson told reporters Saturday quarterback Tyson Bagent will return to practice Saturday as he has cleared concussion protocol.

Bagent missed practice Friday but his return Saturday gives him a chance to suit up and start Monday against the Eagles, as Caleb Williams remains week-to-week with a hamstring injury. Bagent went 5-of-9 for 54 yards against the Vikings.

Broncos ruled out RB Jonah Coleman for Sunday night’s game vs. Rams due to his ankle injury.

RBs J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey are off the injury report and good to go vs. the Rams.

Related Players: Tyler Badie

We are right back where we started the season; presumably with Dobbins taking a vast majority of early-down work and Harvey having the receiving-game upside. Each one is firmly in RB3 range, with upside for either touchdowns (Dobbins) or receptions (Harvey).

Seahawks QB Sam Darnold is off the injury report for Sunday’s game at Washington and is good to go.

Related Players: Drew Lock

Darnold gets a good matchup against the Commanders defense, but without Jaylen Daniels, it's hard to say how much Washington will be able to push back offensively. Consider him a decent streamer in the QB15-18 range.

Steelers ruled out RB Rico Dowdle for Sunday’s game vs. the Bengals due to his toe injury.

RB Jaylen Warren is questionable for Sunday due to his shoulder injury.

Related Players: Eli Heidenreich

Warren is boosted all the way up to the RB1/2 fringe, as a very good bet to handle a vast majority of touches on an offense that wants to keep the ball around the line of scrimmage.

Bills are listing WR D.J. Moore as questionable for Sunday due to his shoulder injury.

Related Players: Dalton Kincaid, Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, Keon Coleman

Should Moore be pushed out of Week 3 availability, we could see another target-heavy performance out of Kincaid, with Shakir/Palmer/Coleman getting a bump as well. Coleman would once again be an interesting boom/bust FLEX option.

Puka Nacua is doubtful for game against Broncos, McVay said.

Related Players: Davante Adams, Terrance Ferguson, Colby Parkinson, Tyler Higbee, Jordan Whittington, Konata Mumpfield

If Nacua misses again this weekend, we can pencil Adams into another WR1 performance after he crushed in fantasy last week. Ferguson/Parkinson/Higbee should also see a touch more usage, with Ferguson a great streaming option.

Texans Nico Collins (Grade 1 hamstring), Ed Ingram (groin strain), Jadeveon Clowney (bone bruise, knee) not practicing and all slated to miss second game in a row, per league sources.

Related Players: Dalton Schultz, Xavier Hutchinson, Kayshon Boutte, Jaylin Noel, Jared Wayne

Schultz remains the clear beneficiary after turning 14 targets into 12 receptions and 140 yards without Collins in Week 2. Houston’s WR opportunities were spread across Hutchinson, Wayne, Boutte and Noel, with none of them catching more than three passes despite C.J. Stroud attempting 55 throws. Schultz is a strong TE1 against Indianapolis, while each Texans receiver remains a desperation flex option.
